The Tragedy of Errors
Much has been written of the com
edy of errors but on Sunday grim
death placed his finger on a lady be
cause of the error of trying to ne
gotiate a slippery hill south of town.
A more extensive account of this and
other automobile tragedies occurs in
another part of this paper every
one due to a tragedy of errors. In
the instance of the two cars occupied
by Omaha negroes which went into
the ditch, one of the occupants gave
is the reason of the pileup the fact
that "We wuz goin about as fast as
co'n whiskey cud make a car go."
It is certainly time that more atten
tion be paid to careful driving if we
are to overcome the tragedy of errors
that is being enacted almost daily on
the public highways of this and oth
er states.
